PROPRIETARY CarTech D3 Tool Steel Heat Treatments
- Annealing: Heat uniformly at 843-871°C (1550-1600°F) and cool very slowly in the furnace at a rate of not more than 11°C (20°F) per hour until furnace is black. The furnace may then be turned off and allowed to cool naturally.
Hardening: Without preheating, place the tool right in the hot furnace and let it heat naturally until it uniformly matches the color of the thermocouple in the furnace. First, heat the salt bath or furnace at 854-982°C (1750-1800°F) and soak 20 minutes plus 5 minutes per inch of thickness, then quench in oil.
Stress relieving: To relieve machining stresses for greater accuracy In hardening - first, rough machine, then heat to a temperature of 649-677°C (1200-1250°F) for a minimum of one hour at temperature and cool slowly - then finish machine.
Tempering: To secure maximum hardness and wear resistance with fair toughness, temper at 204°C (400°F). Considerably greater ductility with some sacrifice in hardness can be achieved by tempering at 427°C (800°F).
